  • Privacy activist group noyb has filed a complaint against Mozilla, claiming that the 'Privacy Preserving Attribution' feature in Firefox tracks user behavior.

  • Despite Mozilla's assertion that the feature provides anonymized data to advertisers, it is enabled by default, which violates EU GDPR rights.

  • Noyb is urging the Austrian data protection authority to investigate and implement an opt-in system instead of the current opt-out approach.

  • Mozilla defends the feature as a way to enhance advertising practices but acknowledges that users should have the choice to disable it.
